Legend
Kevin Kaos & Low-E Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached
Called the fool and the company
On his own, where he'd rather be
Where he ought to be
And he sees what you can't see, can't you see that?
(He sees what you can't see)
Maybe he's caught in the legend
Maybe he's caught in the mood
Maybe these maps and legends
Have been misunderstood
Down the way, the road's divided
Paint me the places you've seen
Those who know what I don't know
Refer to the yellow, red, and green
(Can't you see that?)
Maybe he's caught in the legend
Maybe he's caught in the mood
Maybe these maps and legends
Have been misunderstood
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached
The map that you've painted doesn't seem real
He just sings whatever he's seen
Point to the legend, point to the east
Point to the yellow, red, and green
Maybe he's caught in the legend
Maybe he's caught in the mood
Maybe these maps and legends
Have been misunderstood
Have been misunderstood
(Maps and legends)
(Maps and legends)
Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached (maps and legends)
Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached (maps and legends)
Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached anymore (maps and legends)
The song "Legend" by Kevin Kaos & Low-E seems to explore the idea of an elusive, mysterious figure who cannot be easily understood or pinned down. The repeated lines "He's not to be reached, he's to be reached" suggest a paradoxical sense of inaccessibility and approachability. The singer is described as someone who prefers to be alone, despite being called a "fool" and being part of a company. He sees things that others cannot, perhaps due to his unique perspective or experience. The chorus suggests that perhaps the singer is "caught in the legend," and that the maps and legends around him have been misunderstood.
The second verse adds a layer of complexity by describing a divided road and asking to be shown the places the singer has seen. The colors yellow, red, and green are referenced, perhaps representing different paths or choices. The bridge section continues the theme of the singer being elusive and difficult to understand, while also suggesting that his perception of reality is different from others'. The repeated phrase "maps and legends" serves as a thematic anchor for the song.
